I have never heard the phrase 'false friends' used to describe words that have different definitions in other languages.
It's really quite common. Perhaps only among people who have lived or worked in places where multiple languages are in use. The three listed are also false friends in several other languages including French, Italian, even German (for aktuelle, at least).
Load More Replies...I am the odd one out as I pronounce caLm. Never heard anybody say 'cam down'. Maybe in Yorkshire.
You're not the odd one out. The L in "calm" isn't silent. Never heard anyone say it "caaam".
